Tomb Warden

Tomb Wardens view death not as an end but as a source of power, a wellspring from which they draw the essence of undeath. Through unholy rituals and mystic invocations, these warlocks summon forth a Tomb Guard—a faithful servant forged from the remnants of the departed. This unhallowed companion becomes a symbol of the Tomb Warden's dominion over the boundary between life and death.

 

Guided by a warlock's will, the Tomb Guard walks alongside its master, its existence sustained by the necrotic energies flowing through the pact. Tomb Wardens are often solitary figures, shunned by those who fear the darkness they command. Yet, their loyalty to the dead and their mastery of the necromantic arts grant them a unique and formidable presence on the battlefield.

In pursuit of forbidden knowledge, Tomb Wardens tread carefully on the precipice of morality, manipulating the very fabric of existence to serve their dark ambitions. As their power grows, so too does the spectral bond with their Tomb Guard, forging an unholy alliance that transcends the veil between the living and the dead.
